Greetings to all, back from exile!!! help wanted

[Newguy2]

Good day to all, i was forced into linuxmce exile and i'm back trying to get my system back up and running from the latest snapshot. I've been reading up on all the changes and let me say thanks to all who have contributed to this project. good work guys. I have the core setup ok, other than the source list list issues which i somewhat resolved with this post:

http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=10917.0.
 i was having trouble with the MD script /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh before changing the source list. it would loop with the common crt-c request.  anyway, now now it gets to the point where the md script ends with a "Password for root on localhost?" request.  i'm not sure what the issue is, can someone help an old lmce junky out, i've been going through withdrawal symptoms lol.

Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

there should be no password set for the mysql root user

Thank you for giving us all the password to your box though.

This seems to be missing:

Code:
